Just saw that. Looks like a war zone. Lawrence is a depressed city but Andover is wealthy. This proves money can’t fix everything.

Fire and police were gearing up for the hurricane but many headed north to help.

This kid dying is really sad. Chimney could have fallen on another part of the car.

You’re right. Creosote builds up and chimneys catch on fire. People think you start a fire and that’s it. We had a fireplace in the house where I grew up. Mom had the chimney sweep there once a year. I didn’t understand until she explained why it’s done.

Gas explosion caused the chimney to go boom. I’d not heard of a gas pressure buildup but they can now figure out how to stop it from happening.
